We are entering week three of our Whole30, and I have to say, other than spending a fortune on groceries, it hasn’t been half bad. In fact, I like it so much, I plan to stick with it for longer with a few modifications. I didn’t go through any crankiness, hunger or cravings. My whole family remarks they’ve felt very satisfied. My husband, who already looked great to begin with, took his six pack to a shredded 8 pack in just about 2 weeks. We all realize the exterior stuff is just a bonus, but it is a pretty nice bonus!

I’ve gotten great joy out of creating healthy dinners for the family. My dinners were always healthy, but we have brought it up to a whole new level. My kids are crazy about my bison sliders on sweet potato buns! My biggest challenge has been breakfast. I’m not a savory breakfast person at all. After a few days of eggs, I was completely over it. I suppose a sweet potato hash of some kind would have done the trick, but instead I tried a bowl of faux-oats (or maybe I should say foats?). I found them very filling and a nice departure from plain old eggs. I caught glimpse of something similar on Pinterest, so this is my adaptation of a recipe created by “Empowered Sustenance.”

I'm a happily married fitness freak and mom to three amazing, super-fit kids. My passion is creating original recipes and transforming unhealthy eats into healthy treats. I believe in balancing macro-nutrients as often as possible, and cooking to delight the ones I love in the cleanest, yummiest ways possible. As a nutrition coach, trainer and fitness instructor, I feel food is fuel, but it should also taste splendid, because after all, you only live once.
